Research led by The University of Manchester has found that ions diffuse 10,000 times faster inside atomically thin clays than in bulk clay crystals. Clays are used in a wide variety of membrane ...

Halide perovskites, typically comprising an organic cation, a metal (lead or tin) and a halide anion, exhibit exceptional light-harvesting properties but are prone to ionic motion under operating ...

A research team has developed a new technique to image grain boundaries obstructing lithium-ion migration in solid-state batteries -- a promising type of next-generation battery. A NIMS research team ...

We have theoretically elucidated the molecular-level mechanism by which lithium ions migrate within organic ionic plastic crystals, which are ...

In a recent study published in Nature Communications, a group of researchers explained why ion entry is necessary for T cell migration by investigating the role of With No Lysine (K) 1 (WNK1) kinase ...
